Specialties

Dr. Roniel Y Weinberg has the following 2 specialties

Pain Medicine

Anesthesiology

Anesthesiologists are physicians who are trained to administer anesthetics, which are medicines used to block nerve sensation. Anesthesia can be either local to one specific part of a body, like a tooth, or regional to block feeling to a larger portion of the body, such as during an epidural for child birth. It can also be more general to block sensation to the entire body, resulting in unconsciousness.
Anesthesiologists assist in surgery by determining how much anesthesia is necessary and by monitoring the patient's level of responsiveness and vital signs throughout the procedure. The anesthesia specialist will also bring the patient out of anesthesia and then continue to monitor his or her vital signs post-operation.
Besides assisting in surgeries, anesthesiologists may also treat patients suffering from chronic pain.

Dr. Weinberg is very personable and willing to think outside the box. He has been a pleasure to work with and truly cares. I feel very comfortable with his decisions and to this day he is the only PM Dr that has given me any relief of any kind without pills. I highly recommend him

Bad Staff , incredible difficult to deal with , too long waiting time , if you come little late he wont take you in but when he is late an hour or more no apology.When you are late a bit he refuses to take a look at you. They will give you a new appointment after one month later , he is only young assistant with nose up. Try finding some one better and vise

He took the time to make me fill out paperwork, looked at my history and told me he couldn't help me. I was looking for an expert in spinal cord stimulation and somehow i asked to be seen sooner and ended up with him. advice to others--don't see him. wait it out to see his partners because once you see him, YOU CAN'T SWITCH! yes, that's right. If you guess wrong, you get stuck with the worst one! Yes, he is very nice and thorough, but he certainly doesn't have the experience of his superiors and directors, and it shows.

If you are looking for a top-notch pain expert, Dr. Weinberg is for you. He is a consummate professional and top-notch physician. If you are looking for a prescription pad with a body and expect to be handed narcotics, you probably want to go somewhere else.
I have been seeing Dr. Weinberg for more than 4 years because of nerve pain from spine damage. Chronic pain is a difficult ailment to treat. Often, there are no real solutions; only levels of relief through therapies, surgeries and medication. I went to Dr. Weinberg hoping, at the very least, to put off major surgery until artificial disk replacements became an alternative to spinal fusion.
Dr. Weinberg is one of the most thorough, patient, and attentive physicians I have ever come across. I imagine that solving pain issues is much like sleuthing, but with the clues, and the mystery, both held by the patient. In this manner, Dr. Weinberg is very careful to leave no stones unturned in order to understand and treat the pain.
From my experience, his philosophy of treatment seems to be: treat as non-invasively as possible, explore as many viable options as possible (without discounting alternative treatments), and use narcotics as a last resort for medication.
My experience has always been first-rate. Dr. Weinberg takes his time with each and every patient, giving everyone in his care the same high-quality standard of treatment. Itâs been my own experience that top-level specialists â surgeons, neurologists, etc â give off the impression I am wasting their time when I ask âtoo manyâ questions. With Dr. Weinberg, that has never been an issue. If I have a matter that needs extra attention, or a laundry list of questions, he takes the time to listen, pays attention to every detail, and goes that extra mile to find the best treatment path. Its that high standard of care that keeps chronic pain patients like me coming back.
Although my degenerative condition requires surgery for lasting relief, I credit Dr. Weinberg with getting me to my goal. The extent of my injuries made complete relief possible only through radical surgery, so I never expected the pain to just âgo awayâ without such intervention.
Four years ago, artificial disk replacements were still being tested in the U.S., and were not covered by insurance. Today, they are becoming more common, and insurance covers the procedure. If I chose radical surgery back then, I would have no choice but fusion. But thanks to Dr. Weinbergâs comprehensive approach to patient care and pain management, I now have a choice.
If you want pain management, then Dr. Weinberg is your guy. If you are looking for a pill dispensary, best just find someone else.

Dr. Weinberg was outstanding. I would highly recommend him and Dr. Gritsenko. The office staff was also terrific and very helpful. Dr. Weinberg and Dr. Gritsenko were extremely helpful and gave me pain relief after a thorough exam.
